Christian Louboutin Chambespadrille Black Espadrilles

When the itinerary calls for both comfort and sophistication, look no further than the Chambespadrille. An iconic luxury footwear silhouette, these black espadrilles blend the ease of vacation footwear with Louboutin’s signature craftsmanship. Sleek, minimal and endlessly versatile, they’ll take you from seaside cafés to evening terraces with zero hesitation.

 

Givenchy Blue Monogram 72 Velvet T-Shirt

Velvet might not be your typical summer choice - until you slip into this Givenchy blue monogram 72 velvet T-Shirt. With its soft sheen, de-bossed monogram and deep blue hue, it’s built for day-to-night transitions. Casual enough for daytime city strolls, luxe enough for dinner on the rooftop, this is understated designer menswear opulence at its best.

 

Y-3 Black 3-Stripes Bucket Hat

The Y-3 bucket hat gets a bold, elevated rework with the 3-stripes. Made from structured cotton twill with a double brim and minimalist embroidery, this piece fuses streetwear attitude with designer precision. Cool, confident and completely unfussy, throw it on and let it do the talking.

 

Stone Island Ghost Swim Shorts – Blue Nylon Smerigliato

Luxury men’s summer fashion isn’t complete without Stone Island. Utility meets stealth with the Stone Island Ghost Swim Shorts. Garment-dyed for depth and texture, these trunks combine brushed nylon softness with serious durability. Finished in tonal navy with a barely-there badge, they’re built for the beach but wouldn’t look out of place at a private pool in Ibiza. Quiet luxury in motion.

 

Stone Island Marina Orange Beach Towel

Stone Island Marina Beach Towel – Orange

Poolside gear, levelled up with the Stone Island Marina Beach Towel. A bold addition to your summer kit, woven from plush cotton terry and embroidered with crisp logo lettering. Equal parts function and flex, it’s a towel you’ll actually want to be seen with.

 

Kenzo Dragonfly White Embroidered T-Shirt

The ultimate post-beach essential, the Kenzo Dragonfly white embroidered tee brings cool minimalism with a touch of playful detail. Clean white cotton, a sleek fit and a subtle embroidered motif make it the kind of tee that transitions easily from late breakfasts to breezy nightcaps. Effortless, understated and ready to wear on repeat.

 

 

The Wrap-Up

Great style doesn’t take a holiday, and with the right essentials, it never has to. From tailored shirt and short sets and technical swimwear to crisp luxury summer t-shirts with luxury accessories, this curated lineup ensures your summer wardrobe stays sharp, wherever your travels take you.

 

Pack smart. Dress well. Chase the sun.
